Spring Continues: Seven Falls Hiking


Today Rusty and I hiked to seven falls in Sabino Canyon, which is about 5 miles from our house here in Tucson!  What a gorgeous day, here are some pictures from our time with the Mason family out in the canyon!  Happy Easter to everyone!!  We are heading to Phoenix tomorrow to be with my family and celebrate with delicious food, fun, and of course, Peeps wars.  Description and photos to come at a later date.

Spring is Here!!!



Here are some pictures from our work outing to the Diamondbacks game in their last year of spring training in Tucson!  My office went together to see them WHOOP on the Dodgers yesterday!  Everyone had a great time, and EVERYONE got sunburned due to our pasty white, winter skin being exposed to the first warm sunlight of the spring.  It was still a great time!  We also went to the symphony with my family last night!

It has been a great beginning to 2010 for us overall.  We're getting into the groove here in Tucson and even jumping into some new oppurtunities here.  Rusty and I have both been starting to work with the junior high group at our church and become more involved there.  Two weeks ago we helped the leaders take 25 jr. highers rock climbing at the indoor gym, and this week I got to lead worship for their Friday night meeting.

Another sweet oppurtunity of the new year has been an internship Rusty started last week with the Cleveland Indians (that's a pro baseball team for those that don't know the sports)!  He is working (on his day off) with one of the team's physical therapists during spring training in AZ to learn about their rehab program and get a look at the life of a professional sports P.T.!  He is practicing throwing programs and rehab protocols with the players.  It's a pretty busy time for Rusty right now, but he is really glad to have that chance to see what it would be like.  Working with an MLB team is one of his dreams.

Not much else to report.  Weather is starting to be absolutely WONDERFUL in Tucson.  This is the best time of year in my opinion.  We're looking forward to lots of D-backs games, hiking, out of town visitors, 5k runs, orange dream Eegees, and lots more God-given oppurtunities for the summer!  Here we go!

RocknRoll Run

A few weeks ago, my sister and I completed the PF Chang's 1/2 marathon in Phoenix!  It was the first distance race for either of us, and it was awesome!!!  We trained hard for several months, and even after running the race, I still want to do it all over again!  I'm hoping to run the Tucson 1/2 marathon in December.  Becky is going to run with me again, she just doesn't know it yet.  Here are some pictures from before and after the race!  The best part of crossing the finish line, besides the accomplishement of course, was free lettuce wraps and chocolate cake from PF Chang's.  We Reeves's will do anything for free food:).
